Animal research plethysmometer 37240

for rodents

Measures small changes in volume & oedema (fluid retention) to gauge the inflammatory response such as for anti-inflammatory screening tests. Hands-free operation. Precision measurements. Detects and displays 0.01 ml changes in rodent paw volume. Easy data transfer and software included. Background The new original device by Ugo Basile designed to measure paw volume and its changes (swelling) in rodents. Used to precisely measure experimentally induced inflammation and changes due to administration of pharmacological substances. New version with touch screen display, new firmware with more functions, with USB data retrival and experiment data loading capabilities, LAN connection, auto-mesure function and Ugo Basile family feeling design. Over 3000 citations of Ugo Basile’s Plethysmometer in scientific publications. Precise measurements, hands free operation Displays the exact paw volume on the touch screen display, read-out with resolution of 0.01ml. Small differences are detected by an high precision self-made level transducer Foot pedal that allows hands-free operation, to saved measured value and to enable auto-measure function Easy zeroing before making new measurements. Measuring paw tubes available in different sizes for different animals paws Web-based LAN connection for data retrieving and experiment data loading (password protected) USB pen drive for data retrieving and experiment data loading
